		The Editor's Barnstar
		I hereby award Jobjörn this barnstar for having the courage to nominate all 172 articles for deletion despite the obvious hassle in tagging all of them and being dismissed as 'crazy' by other Wikipedians. I salute you. - SpLoT (*C*+u+g) 14:07, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Uh. Although I have no objections to your removal of either {{prod}} or {{importance}}; I would like to point out that it isn't only an "importance tag", but also a "notability tag". Not only does the template explicitly say "notability" (and then "importance" within parentheses), it places the article in Category:Wikipedia articles with topics of unclear importance - just like {{notability}} does. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 15:14, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I have started the discussion again on the appropriate wikiproject. IMHO, people not involved in the project where a page is tagged under, should not be deciding on maintenance tags (sorry, nothing personal). These articles are all important (and the one I did remove does state why), they only don't state why they are important. There is some discussion on that, in my view: a non-notability tag is really a question if an article is non-notable, and importance tag is saying, that the article does not say why it is important (but it probably is), and hence that it may be non-notable. There is a significant difference in that.

I know there is a big backlog on the non-notability categories, but that means that there is still a lot of work to be done. Deleting articles is a solution, but then, who is to decide whether these articles are ripe for deletion, or that they should be worked on. That is why I say, that that decision should be made by the appropriate wikiproject, not by a person who wants to make the non-notability category smaller.

Well, most of them (I suppose you have seen the list of my prod nominations) would probably not survive an AfD, such as Immigration (CA) or Mack Dawg Productions. In the two cases contested so far, I see no reason to go to AfD, but most of the articles I've nominated I would bring to AfD if contested. I don't nominate articles for deletion because I want backlogs cleared, I nominate articles for deletion because they should be deleted. Very often, articles that ought to be deleted are found in the backlogs, but also elsewhere. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 15:34, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I know this is only a prod, which might set some people to work on these articles, but I don't think that it is a good plan. It is just that I am against deletion/proposed deletion by people who are not working in the field where that article is of interest. In general these articles are made by someone in the field who is encountering it in another article, and starts a stub in the hope it will grow, and someone else who sees that the article does not describe for what it is used tags it for importance (which can be done by anyone, that person apparently had an interest for that article). Then a third person comes along, and either prod's it, or deletes it, because it is tagged as non-notable, without knowing anything about the subject, or doing some research. (I am sorry, I don't mean this at all personal, it is just, every week/forthnight someone comes along and 'touches' maintenance tags on articles outside his/her own field, I would suggest, that that should be left to people within a certain project). I have made a suggestion on the non-notability wikiproject. Hope to see you around. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:45, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

The alternative to me proposing deletions outside the scope of Politics of Sweden and Modernism ("my fields", I suppose...) would be letting Lakshmikanth and Primary teacher uk stay... for how long? Out of the many deletions I proposed, only four have been contested - three of them on compounds such as Boron phosphide. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 15:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Deletions are hardly contested, anyway, people don't see this, most people in chemistry don't even know that these articles exist (by the way, I feel like removing the tags on the others as well, I saw them, but I am waiting for input/discussion). About how long they should stay .. well .. until someone adds more info. If articles are notable, they should stay, deletion does not make the database smaller, the database is just as big with or without that article, so I see no reason to delete. At the moment there is a big non-notability category where no-one wants to plough through, if it is per discipline, people within the discipline might do it, because the categories are then smaller, and well, I am bored sometimes, and decide to suddenly improve an article. Also having that smaller, specific category makes the chance bigger people in a project actually put some of the articles on their watchlist, and the project can be activated to do something about it. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 16:00, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Re-prodding is against procedure

Hi, you re-prodded MasterCraft after I had just de-prodded the article. That is a violation of WP:PROD - if a proposed deletion is contested in any manner, it must be taken to WP:AFD rather than simply re-prod'ding it.

Your claim that it's not notable is somewhat silly, they're one of the top boat manufacturers in the world in terms of volume of boats produced.

The article clearly needs help, but neither PROD nor AFD are substitutes for cleanup tags or working on improving articles yourself. Please do not delete things rather than clean them up and improve them. Thank you. Georgewilliamherbert 04:23, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry; I was unaware it had been proposed for deletion earlier. I will make sure to be more careful in the future. However, notability hasn't been established even though it had been tagged as requiring that for six months... causing me to assume it wasn't notable. However, as said, I will make sure to be more careful in the future, both in regards to earlier proposed deletions and actual notability. Promise.

Removed deletion tag from Nortel Meridian Article (after expanding)

Hello,

I've expanded the above article and let me know. If you feel it still does not meet notability requirements, could you please let me know on my talk page before putting for AFD and I'll see what else I can do - I think I've reached the limit of what I can add just now, but I seem to remember reading an interesting history including some usage stats somewhere it's (half-ton of) manuals.

Mona Sahlin and FNL

Hello, I noticed that you inserted a possibly quite controversial statement in the article on Mona Sahlin. Do you have a source for that? It would be greatly appreciated. Tack på förhand, Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

I took it from the Swedish wiki, and you can also see it mentioned in todays Dagens Nyheter (19 january), there is nothing strange about it... And it is nothing controversial about FNL at all! Almost everyone in Sweden was against the Vietnam War, and many young people, especially socialists, joined the Swedish FNL groups. Bronks 13:06, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I'll cite it from DN later then. But, even though I most certainly would have joined FNL if I had been alive back in the days, I do believe it is quite controversial in some circles (i e, Timbro-aligned circles) - considering the controversy surrounding Lars Ohly being a "communist", you can't be too sure. But, it's stated in this article, so well. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 13:15, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay, good. Sure, of course many or all conservatives and rightist liberals found it wrong to support FNL... But the fact that a social democartic leader like Mona Sahlin has a background with the FNL movement it not controversial. Most of them do, propably even Göran Persson. Bronks 13:41, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

As long as it is cited, it's cool ;) Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 13:50, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Importance

I am sorry, I am reinstating all the importance tags again. They may be notable, but the article does not state that information. Removing a tag does not remove the backlog, it withdraws it only from attention. Please see discussion on the wikiproject notability. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 10:45, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Huh, okay. I thought you yourself (perhaps it was someone else then) said they were inherently notable, so I thought I'd remove the tags. But very well, you're the man. I didn't remove that many tags, since I excepted someone to interrupt me... just didn't think it'd be you. ;) Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 10:49, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm always around ;-). Yes, you are right, they are almost always notable. But, the contents of these articles does not state any importance (hence an importance template, which states: "This article lacks information on the notability (importance) of the subject matter."), and hence, they may be not be notable (such templates state "An editor has expressed a concern that the subject of the article does not satisfy the notability guideline or one of the following guidelines for inclusion on Wikipedia", so one addresses 'information', while the other addresses 'subject'). I will repost on wikiproject notability. Cheers anyway. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 10:57, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Cheers. (And from now on, I'm just going to leave the chemistry articles be...) Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 10:58, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm not only monitoring chemistry, don't worry. And I guess my thoughts about the {{importance}} are not only subject to chemistry articles, they also concern other projects as well. May see you around after you open your kitchen cupboard once, and seeing that something contains a chemical that is noted on wikipedia with an importance template, and you decide to add that information and remove the importance tag. Cheers! --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 11:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Black Death Article in Swedish

Hi there! This is sort of a random request, but I see you editing the Sweden article a lot and assume you have a Swedish wikipedia account? If so, I hope that you might be able to make a change to the article Digerdöden [1]. The map shown there is old and this one Image:Bubonic_plague_map_2.png is much better. I don't speak, read, etc. Swedish and it appears I need an account to edit articles on the Swedish site! Do you think you could change the map for me? Thanks! JeffreyN 00:00, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

I just attempted to, but Image:Bubonic plague map 2.png is not uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. I'll fix it later though. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 10:51, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Licencing of location maps for European countries

Hi. You are one of many editors having expressed a concern about the licence for David Liuzzo's maps. He already changed this for the European countries without EU-highlighting, see Commons - Template:Europe location. The creator promised to do so as well for their version with EU-highlighting, and nothing will go on as long as this may not have been taken care of. Meanwhile, in case you like to inspect the presently modified licence and wish to comment on it, please do so in the subsection Comments on the February 2007 new licence for David Liuzzo maps. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 3 Feb2007 17:13 (UTC)

The State of Sweden

Goddag, I am writing to let you know, I AM curious to hear what you have to say on the subject. It sounds to me like you don't think very well of the Swedish Social Democratic party, and I'm wondering why. I'm guessing you living in Sweden, so I find this interesting. Jag heter EnglishEfternamn, men jag kallas "Smith".-- EnglishEfternamn ^talk_contribs 23:01, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Hm. No, indeed I do not think very well of the social democrats - it should however be duly noted that I find the current government even worse! But, quite large parts of the swedish populace were in fact quite apathetic under most of 2006, and both the social democrats and the moderates received criticism for being, well, for being the same shit. Fredrik Reinfeldt orchestrated a facelift of the moderates, changing the party colors, calling it "the new workers' party", defending "the swedish model" (on collective wage agreements), talking about welfare, the poor, etcetera. Meanwhile, the social democrats kept on speaking about the exact same thing although still wanting to draw right-wing voters. The result was, it seemed to me and many others, that the social democrats were suddenlt the moderates and vice versa.

Now, my criticism against this parliamentarian mash-up is not entirely based on ordinary mistrust for politicians. I'm also part of the Swedish extra-parliamentary left, which, well, doesn't like parlamentarianism at all. I have no reason to explain all this to you though, after all, we're on Wikipedia! See Sveriges Arbetares Centralorganisation and related articles to satisfy those needs, if you have any of the sort.

I'd like to end with a quote, from Per Gahrton: The great bluff is that the Moderates and the Social Democrats are opposites. In reality, they are in all important matters identical trustees of a materialistic growth-society where the main task of the State is to defend the over-consumption of the rich world, now also with weapons in hand and EU-helmet on the head. Perhaps they could extend their already finished life period by joining forces as the "Social Moderates".

Quote (sloppily translated by me) comes from Yelah, a libertarian socialist internet news magazine. The short notice of course goes on to discuss his own involvement in the bombing of Afghanistan etcetera.

Now, I'm just babbling. I hope I said something that makes sense. I'm quite tired. Lev väl! Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 23:08, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

You might have read that I am facinated with Sweden in general, and am thinking of studying there for a semester or two. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions relating to life and culture there?EnglishEfternamn^talk_contribs 00:49, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

No, not at all. Go ahead. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 01:35, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay, here goes. 1. It has been said in the Wikipedia article on Sweden and in other readings as well that assimiliating (whatever constitutes assimilation) is rather difficult to do for outsiders in Sweden. Is this true, and will it be hard for me to get to know people, find acceptance (both with peers and instructors at school), etc.? I know that can be diffcult in any country, but will it help that I can speak the language well, that I "look the part", etc? Is the reaction to American nationals as negative as they can at times be in other parts of Western Europe? Not that I am blaming anyone, I've seen how American tourists act sometimes, especially at the Acropolis in Athens, Greece.

2. Having been to Greece and Austria, I have found that most people in those areas speak English if required, and Sweden they say, is the same way, but I am really looking forward to speaking lots of Swedish, it's a very neat language. I heard on Radio Sweden the other day that the English language may be proving a threat to Swedish in the larger cities as many establishments are adopting it, even fully. Does this statement have any merit?

3. How does say, Göteborg or say Malmö differ from Stockholm culturally?

Det var alt, tack! EnglishEfternamn^talk_contribs 23:15, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Okayes. 1: I don't know about that. Finding new friends is probably just as hard as it always is when you move to a new place, but it won't be harder just since you're american. Possibly you could run into problems if you looked Arab and were a muslim, since Swedes are just as full of anti-islamic prejudice as any other westerner. But, no, finding acceptance will probably not be hard. Especially not if you move to a student town like Lund or Uppsala.

2: Swedes are good at speaking English. Most credit this to us starting to learning it in 1st Grade and, in contrast to in example Germany, not dubbing our movies/sitcoms but instead using subtitles. That English language poses a threat to the Swedish language is quite an overstatement though - it's possible that English has overtaken the high-class lounges of the wealthy world travellers but if you stay on the street Swedish is the language. Newspapers are in Swedish, television is in Swedish (except english shows of course), etc.

3: Not much. They talk differently. Overall, though, I don't think there's a large difference. At least not to an "outsider".

Overall, don't worry. In the age of globalization, Sweden is just like the United States. Except, of course, that your "left-wing" democrats are our "right-wing", and your "right-wing" republicans are our nazis. Kinda. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 00:01, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Location Maps

On the WikiProject Countries talk page, you had either explictly declared a general interest in the project, or had participated at a discussion that appears related to Location Maps for European countries.
New maps had been created by David Liuzzo, and are available for the countries of the European continent, and for countries of the European Union exist in two versions. From November 16, 2006 till January 31, 2007, a poll had tried to find a consensus for usage of 'old' or of which and where 'new' version maps. At its closing, 25 people had spoken in favor of either of the two presented usages of new versions but neither version had reached a consensus (12 and 13), and 18 had preferred old maps.
As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions), and also which new version should be applied for which countries.
Please note that since January 1, 2007 all new maps became updated by David Liuzzo (including a world locator, enlarged cut-out for small countries) and as of February 4, 2007 the restricted licence that had jeopardized their availability on Wikimedia Commons, became more free. The subsections on the talk page that had shown David Liuzzo's original maps, now show his most recent design.
Please read the discussion (also in other sections α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η, θ) and in particular the arguments offered by the forementioned poll, while realizing some comments to have been made prior to updating the maps, and all prior to modifying the licences, before carefully reading the presentation of the currently open survey. You are invited to only then finally make up your mind and vote for only one option.
There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 7 Feb2007 20:18 (UTC)

I did notice that this was an invitation, however, I'm not too keen on any of the new maps. I, for one, would prefer those: they are SVG, and they are multi-licensed with GFDL and Creative Commons CC-BY-SA-2.5 and older versions (2.0 and 1.0). And they look better than those currently under discussion. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 21:10, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

I too prefer the Rei-artur maps to the 'old' maps, but still appreciate the detail of the David Liuzzo maps and (partially) the Mercator projection, and their showing a large recognizable area that is the general reference when roughly locating a country (both latter points explained in subsection Technical). It might have been better in case the wide area of David Liuzzo's non-vector graphics maps (even if it would have had few details) could be used as locator maps in a country infobox, and properly scalable vector graphics of areas the size as the Rei-artur Jordan map would have had the more details (then including neighbouring countries' names as well) and could have been shown or linked at an appropriate larger size inside an article. Though for such a relatively small area, no noticable distortion of either directions or distances is unavoidable: it should be drawn as if photographed from right above the middle of the area. By contrarily cutting from a world map, the Rei-artur distortions are unnecessarily unequal from one map to another, depending on whether cropping a central or a peripheral part of the world map. This is partially so for the David Liuzzo maps, but the large area makes it a bit easier to take its distortions (in this case stretching distances, and varying only from North to South while Rei-artur distortions vary East to West as well) into account; when we could see a Rei-artur map of for instance New Zealand (or the actually available Argentina map, especially for Patagonia, Ushuaia), people will usually not be aware of strong directional distortions (compare New Zealand's too horizontal direction on that map of Argentina, with this — I couldn't see a Rei-artur map for New Zealand, only and 'old' style .png, not a scalable vector graphics map.) Another problem is their very unequal scale as your link of Jordan and mine of Argentina clearly show. The David Liuzzo licence now appears to unconditionally allow every modification and usage of the maps, it only expresses a legitimate concern of their author that is not enforced. — SomeHuman 8 Feb2007 22:39 (UTC)

My primary reason for my preference of the rei-artur maps is the very fact that they are NOT detailed, meaning they could be easily adapted for more specific maps, such as on municipalities, provinces etc in individual countries. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 22:50, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and I believe I saw an enormous SVG map on the entire world. New SVGs could be created out of that one. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 22:52, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

That's what Rei-artur has been doing: Rei-artur maps are simply coloured crops from Petr Dlouhý's world map. And as I tried to explain, it's a wrong approach to crop from an unavoidably unevenly and at places strongly distorted world map. That goes for cropping from a Mercator world map too, but at least with a Mercator projection you do not have to know whether it was a Europe/Africa-centric world map (as the Rei-artur maps appear to be) or one centering on the Americas or on Oceania/Kamchatka (as might be the case for the 'old' style map of New Zealand): in a Mercator projection, any place at the northern or southern polar circle is equally stretched in an east-westernly direction, exactly by the ratio of the equator's length divided by a polar circle's length. A large-area David Liuzzo map shows whether an area is far northernly or far southernly, so one can estimate or even actually calculate the distortion; though a Rei-artur map shows a Eurocentric view of the world in its corner part, one does not immediately know the latter to have been simply cropped to obtain a particular country's immediate vincinity, which matters to distortion on top of a far northernly of far southernly position. By the way, here you can see the southern tip of Argentina to be far less East than Buenos Ayres (compare Rei-artur), the near vertical meridians show that this must be the actual shape and as you see these meridians running together towards the poles, East-to-West distances are not distorted either, and equidistant longitudes prove there is no North-to-South distortion: that's more the projection we need for each country, though for locator maps showing a somewhat larger area. — SomeHuman 8 Feb2007 23:56 - 10 Feb2007 12:45 (UTC)

Heh. I moved it at your request and merged the history, and then realized that you were the sole contributor of both versions (apart from the initial stub), ergo you could have copy/pasted it without harm. The point of not copy/pasting and history merges is to preserve the attribution to the authors per GFDL. In this case, the only difference between the move and copy/paste would be that, now, the consecutive edits of yours are preserved, and in the copy/paste case they would appear as one big diff. But, you'd agree, it isn't any practical difference. If there were multiple people contributing to the User:Jobjörn/Ottar, that would make the difference. Just for your information...

Riksdagen people

What do you think about adding interwikis to them all? They are all on Swedish Wikipedia, I think. If you can find a tool to use, it shouldn't be too much work. / Fred-Chess 02:03, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually I was thinking of that earlier. I thought I could ask FlaBot to have a go on it, but I realized it wouldn't as there are no interwikis on the other side. Unfortunately, the Swedish Wikipedia does not have articles for every single MP... so I decided I'd browse through them all when I no longer have to mass-create stubs (as per Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of members of the Swedish Riksdag, 2002-2006). When that's promoted, I'm going to bring all of my creations up to at least the same standard as Rolf K. Nilsson. No worries! (Hmm - come to think about it, perhaps it'd be easier to add interwiki-links to them all using AWB and [[sv:{{subst:PAGENAME}}]] and then remove those that do NOT have corresponding Swedish articles? We'll see.) Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 02:09, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

OK, I'm going through the Members of the Riksdag in order to make sure they are all added to Category:Members of the Riksdag.

I'm not entirely sure what argument you are making, but I wrote something on the talk page. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 12:52, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
